What if people are naturally bi/pan and either learned or chosen aversion to one sex or another makes them either gay or straight? In a hypothetical world free of antigay bigotry couldn’t a person be dared to kiss or otherwise get close to someone of the same gender and realize it turned them on?
I dont know but isn’t “born gay” or “born straight” kind of similar to gender essentialism?
I’m all for a world where people have as much opportunity to choose as possible, but I also realize people put a lot of stock in what they’ve already chosen. Perhaps it’s like a long term relationship where someone feels their partner is the “only one” for them, following a breakup they often find there are other partners they’d be happy with too.
Just my thoughts, no offense intended. Not really looking to share my own experiences here but they sort of make more sense in the theory I’m explaining here.
